Connection Questions
How do connection suggestions work?
ELITORO's team identifies potential connections based on mutual interests and compatibility. These appear in your Connection Suggestions section for you to accept or decline.

You can proactively request connections by describing what you're looking for. ELITORO finds up to 3 matching profiles for you to choose from. You have 5 request credits per month.

Meeting Questions
How long are meetings?
All ELITORO meetings are one hour via Zoom video call.
What if I need to cancel a meeting?
You can cancel meetings, but frequent cancellations may affect your reputation. Try to reschedule rather than cancel outright.
What happens if someone doesn't show up?
No-shows can be reported. The platform tracks attendance and takes action against repeat offenders.
Rating Questions
Are ratings anonymous?

What if I receive unfair ratings?
Focus on being a good connection. Over time, unfair ratings are balanced by accurate ones. Contact support for serious concerns.

Ratings affect your visibility, connection suggestions, and referral eligibility. Consistently low ratings may trigger a review.
